Iran’s nuclear sites are active again  

Peloni:  The time to respond to such existential threats as a nuclear armed Iran is before such a threat is operational.  That time is now.

War with Iran: Nuclear dialectics of an expected conflict – opinion  

Israel should clarify its nuclear stance and take action against Iran while it’s not yet nuclear to maintain its strategic advantage.

By LOUIS RENÉ BERES | SEPTEMBER 12, 2024

On its face, the current strategic balance between Israel and Iran favors the Jewish state. In extremis, because it represents the only already nuclear adversary, Israel is in a dominant position to achieve “escalation dominance.” At the same time, (1) an “asymmetrical nuclear war” could be fought with Israel as the sole nuclear combatant, and (2) Iran is verifiably close to becoming a nuclear combatant state.

Putin warns NATO will be ‘at war’ with Moscow if Ukraine fires long-range missiles at Russia  

Peloni:  The US threatened nuclear war with the Soviet Union simply over the placement of Soviet missiles in Cuba.  Now, the US is contemplating the actual use of its missiles being used against the Russian homeland and the Russian people with reckless abandon.  Putin’s anger would appear not only justified, but actually rather subdued.  The ever escalating moves of the NATO war machine appear intent upon poking the Russian bear til it at last responds with a terrible fury at those who have been in fact making war against it thru their use of their Ukrianian proxy.  Putin has many choices to leverage in response to this reckless move by the West.  Let us hope that the Radicals in Washington are finally restrained from making this most recent radical escalation in its war to regime change and breakup Russia.

IDF Special Forces Conducted Daring Raid on Iranian Precision Missile Factory in Syria  

Peloni:  Ironically, this attack on a single factory resulted in more than double the number of reported deaths from an attack on 145 rocket launchers just as the rockets were being fueled and loaded, demonstrating the degree of disconnect between the claim being made about the recent face-off against Hezbollah, which has been described by Mike Doran.  Consequently, this begs the question of what the real truth surrounding the attack on Hezbollah’s launchers might have been.

FDD | Sept 12, 2024

Latest Developments

An Israel Defense Forces (IDF) special forces unit reportedly conducted a raid on an underground Iranian-built precision missile factory in Syria, three sources told Axios on September 12. While the IDF has not taken credit for the raid, the sources told the publication it was conducted by the IDF’s elite Sayeret Matkal unit. According to Syrian opposition TV, Israeli commandos used ropes to rappel to the ground from hovering helicopters before engaging in clashes with the surprised Syrian guards at the facility, killing several of them. The commandos then used explosives to blow up the underground facility — including sophisticated machinery. The Times of Israel also reported that the commandos removed some equipment and documents during the raid.

It’s Not Over  

“In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate”

by

“In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate,” a terrorist declares on the Flight 93 cockpit recording. That’s followed by the sounds of the terrorists assaulting a passenger.

“Please don’t hurt me,” he pleads. “Oh God.”

As the passengers rush the cabin, a Muslim terrorist proclaims, “In the name of Allah.”

The Consequences of an Arms Embargo on Israel: A Critical Analysis  

Jafaj | September 11, 2024

Summary Of Findings & Conclusions: An Arms Embargo

–     Proposed as a measure to pressure the nation over its policies in Gaza, will likely destabilize the region economically, militarily and politically by weakening Israel’s defense capabilities.

–     Will embolden adversaries wishing to destroy Israel such as Iran and its proxies. This will disrupt the Middle East’s balance of power.

–     Would strain diplomatic relations with Western allies and negatively, leading to broader economic repercussions.

Reason and mystery in Israel’s defense posture  

Israel’s jihadist enemies draw palpable power and purpose from a literally primal loathing of reason and rationality.

Louis Rene Beres| Sept 10, 2024

There is something inside us that yearns not for reason, but for mystery … for whisperings of the irrational.”

— Karl Jaspers, Reason and Anti-Reason in Our Time (1952)

In complex matters of national defense, truth is sometimes counterintuitive. While for Israel, the most tangible source of power is its military, this source should never be considered in isolation.Because jihadist adversaries often regard personal death avoidance as more rewarding than anything else, their highest form of power is never just a matter of military assets, strategy or tactics. Rather, it is a matter of “power over death.”

ABC’s Pro-Harris Debate Bias Was So Bad Even MeAgain Had to Call it Out  

Peloni:  Kelly has come a long way since playing the role of the assassin moderator nearly a decade ago.  While I completely agree with her critique, Sundance, who has a good memory for such things describes the gross inconsistency in her doing so.  Ignoring this, I disagree with Sundance’s claim that “none of this nonsense changes anything.”  The Dem faithful, which would surely include the Leftist Jewish majority of voters, were looking for a basis to remain in their infantile state of servitude to the wildly antisemetic Dems, and I believe that many will use this debate as the crutch tying them to their well established Stockholm Syndrome oppressors on the Left.  So what do others think about this?

Sundance | September 11, 2024

The winner of the ABC presidential debate was President Donald Trump, not because there was anything he needed to say in order to win the debate, but simply because the transparency of the ABC debate bias was too visible to assist Kamala Harris. [SEE HERE]

The terror attacks that don’t count  

Can you imagine the international reaction if in the month of August, there had been 90 attempts by Jews to murder Palestinian Arabs?

There’s been a huge increase in attempts to murder Jews in Judea and Samaria in recent weeks, but you wouldn’t know it from reading The New York Times or watching CNN. Because, it seems, some terrorist attacks just don’t count.

According to newly released Israeli government statistics, 53 terrorist attacks were foiled in July. That number rose to 90 attacks against Israelis in August.

Trump Frenzies As Kamala, Moderators Throw Chum In The Water  

Peloni:  Harris only had to hold her own on the debate stage to improve her position in the election, and with the support of the extraordinarily clear bias of the moderators, she did so.  In fact, Harris didn’t win this debate, the moderators did, but ignoring this nuance, I suspect that the outcome of this event will be seen to not favor Trump.  The half truths and impartial referees had their desired effect.

Reagan Reese | Daily Caller

Former President Donald Trump came out hot during his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, while ABC’s moderators fact-checked just one side of the stage.

Trump and Harris met for the first time in their political careers on ABC News’s debate stage in a 90 minute contest that featured no live audience, muted mics and moderators that left many conservative viewers frustrated. As ABC’s David Muir and Linsey Davis continuously corrected Trump and left Harris un-checked, the vice president baited the former president into fiery moments by teasing him about rally crowd size and his 2020 loss.

Dear American Jews who vote Democrat  

How did we get to a place, less than 100 years after the Shoah, where Jews vote for the Jew haters? They keep them in power. Always trying to rationalize their reasons.

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle. Sun Tzu: The Art of War

It is narrated in the hadith that Muhammed said:
